	World Vision Boosts Quang Tri's Development

Project RENEW recently joined forces with the Alliance for All Inclusion (AAI) to sign a cooperation agreement for the project “Improvement of living conditions of disabled persons in provinces heavily sprayed with Agent Orange” implemented in the three provinces of Quang Tri, Thua Thien Hue, and Quang Nam (Inclusion I).

This US Agency for International Development (USAID)-funded initiative aims to expand and enhance the quality of rehabilitation and care services for persons with disabilities both in the community and at service facilities across those three provinces of Quang Tri, Quang Nam, and Thua Thien Hue. The overall objective is to improve the quality of life for persons with disabilities while raising public awareness and attitudes, ultimately promoting their social inclusion.

Accordingly, Project RENEW will receive an amount of USD 306,338 to carry out activities aimed at enhancing the quality of rehabilitation and care services for persons with disabilities in these provinces.

Project RENEW Coordination Manager, along with the manager of the Victim Assistance/Disability Support Program and other RENEW staff members, attended the meeting in Da Nang city alongside representatives from the AAI member organizations.

“We’re thrilled to continue our partnership with AAI to make a significant difference,” said Nguyen Hieu Trung, RENEW Coordination Manager at the signing event.

The Inclusion I project is funded by the USAID Vietnam, with National Action Center for Toxic Chemicals and Environment Treatment (NACCET) under Ministry of National Defense being the responsible organization through the Center for Creative Initiatives in Health and Population (CCIHP).

Project RENEW, a cooperation program between Quang Tri province and international non-governmental organizations, started its task in 2001, with activities to reduce damage caused by mines and explosives left over after the war and support Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) survivors and people with disabilities with recovery and rebuilding.

Tran Van Giang, a 65-year-old resident of Hai Hung commune, Hai Lang district, is one of 1,214 people with disabilities benefiting from Inclusion I Project since 2022. Losing a leg to a landmine in his youth, Giang has received an artificial limb and a kit of Do It Yourself tools through the project.

“This support has restored my mobility and empowered me to help my neighbors,” said Giang.
